knit

I finished the Amarillo Cowl yesterday. See it here on ravelry. I really like how it turned out. It was a little bunchy before I blocked it but now it's nice and drapey. I don't love my cast on and bind off but I never do. For the project I'm working on now I'm trying to figure out the provisional cast on. I really don't get it but I'm just following the video and hoping it turns out. It's a hat and I guess I'm going to knit a lining for the cuff or something. We'll see! Learning anything new in knitting is so tough for me. I definitely can't do it by an illustration, I have to see it in action. Even then I'm rewatching a gazillion times. I'm an old dog when it comes to knitting.
